AuthorTopic: General Pokemon Thread (Read 25813 times)

With the Japanese release of the new Pokemon games on the horizon, masses of new information are being leaked, such as the complete Pokedex featuring 156 completely new monsters. Here's the link to it, but I warn that it contains massive spoilers.

Since Gen. 4 it's seemed to me that they're running out of real animals to rip off, though I will say that I SERIOUSLY want that mole looking one. :3 It's adorable.I like the new designs, but they almost don't look like Pokemon considering some of the older stuff(I mean, just look at gen. 3 and compare them!).It just goes to show how far they progress each time they put out a new game. Even though the story itself never changes much, I do always like to see the new characters come out and see if I want to add them to my arsenal. I may get this when it's released.

There's a pokecenter in my local mall... So thats one of the first places I'm going to take my friend when I take her up here for a short vacation. Anyways, I haven't played much since I was a kid but one of my friends gave me pearl I think for my birthday (and because he wanted someone else working on it so he could trade and stuff )

I'll probably pick up white or black at some point... Just keep forgetting about it, lol.

I love, love, LOVE pokemon, but I'm honestly still stuck remembering some of gen. 4, I barely recognise half of the black/white pokemon. But if black 2 / white 2 comes out I'll probably get back into it through that! I was hoping they'd do something with Kyurem that wasn't just a 'pokemon grey'.

Also what's a seikenshi?

I still have red.... And I still like the first generation the most. Lol. But old school ftw.

Well, if you ever find yourself in and or near lynnwood in the state of Washington its at alderwood mall. On the inside near the gamestop. I hear there's another gamestop inside the mall though.. But I haven't seen one.

QuQ aaaa scraggy plushies and reshirams and zekroms and omgPokemon merchandise makes me /so/ happy I can't even words, I have a handful of plushes but I WANT MORE OvO

I was just a little too late for Red/Blue/Yellow, but I still had them and played them. I played Gold/Silver first though, and still have my originals. Jhoto was my favourite region. old school gamer 4 lyf

Yes 8D I love that PokemonAnd according to google, a seikenshi is a group of "sacred swordsmasters"? I looked it up in my Japanese dictionary and couldn't find it, so maybe it's just a movie-exclusive word, haha

Well basically all that's released now is the name and cover PokemonWith the names being Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2. The cover Pokemon are some freaky fusions between Kyurem and Reshiram/Zekrom, creatively called "Black Kyurem" and "White Kyurem"The 2 at the end suggests its gonna be a sequel, as opposed to a mix of the two, which has never been done before, so we'll see

Feels like hanging at the endDon't turn away, take it slowYou got to stay as you are

Well I don't quite live near it, I live in edmonds, which is about 6.4 miles away according to google. So I can only go when my family drives down there

Edit: I bought white.

I have to say I like the pokemon in this version a lot better than Gen 4.

Gotta say they have gotten less inspired with each gen, 4th will always be my favorite since HG and SS were made, I like the ideas they put in like moving sprites, and moving camera angles, but sadly they will never be able to do this in HG &SS

So I did a bit of looking and noticed there wasn't a thread to really discuss Pokemon in general. You know, a thread to discuss what you like or don't like about each generation, a place for you to talk about different things you've done with playthroughs, whatever you wanna talk about here!

I got my hands on Pokemon HeartGold recently, great considering Silver was the first Pokemon game I ever owned. I have to say, I like a whole lot of the changes made, and the game just looks good. Of course you still get the whole annoying trainers constantly calling you, but it feels like they cut getting items from certain ones. Which sucks, because I really need a firestone to evolve Growlithe. But I enjoy having my Pokemon follow me around, something fans have been calling for since Pokemon Yellow. And the Pokewalker makes it so I can masturbate and still feel like I accomplished something. They did a great job remastering the music as well, which is great since I have all the music practically memorized from countless hours playing Silver/Gold/Crystal.

I give HeartGold a 15/10, would be a 20/10 if I could find a fucking firestone.

Ahh, I love Pokémon. I've grown up playing the games, and I still do play them. I own a few of the older games, and I still love to go back and just play through a couple of them from time to time. I also own some Pokémon franchise which floats around my room.

One of these days I'm going to cosplay as Ash Ketchum. It's a goal of mine. I've already found some gloves and a hat just like his.

I haven't actually gotten a chance to play more of the newer ones, though I'm really tempted to save up for a 3DS just so I can. I want to start to catch up on Pokémon again, as I feel like I've been stuck in the past for a bit. Like, I want to see and play with more of the new Pokemon as well. I've seen a couple of new ones that I kind of like.

Also, I expect a certain platypus admin to notice this thread at some point.

The Pokemon games are some of, if not my favorite video games of all time. I've grown up with the show and the TCG, but I didn't find out about the games until my cousin introduced me to Pokemon Yellow. The game that I've spent by far the most time on was Pokemon Diamond/Platinum. That's where I got my first level 100 Pokemon, an Empoleon. So many memories! X3

You can get a firestone as a prize from the Pokeathalon, but it's only available on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Also, School Kid Alan gives it to you randomly.

If you do get a 3DS, you should get this one. I can't wait to get it when it comes out on March 24th!
